Cost. Aluminum is the most efficient way to stretch a limited equipment budget. Alloy is about 1/3 the price of carbon.
Stiffness. HPL Aluminum booms feature monocoque (one-piece) construction that until now had been associated only with carbon booms. Our Aluminum booms are stiffer and higher performance than typical multi-piece alloy booms, where looseness can occur at each joint.
Less weight/more responsiveness.
HPL booms are made from one piece of high-strength, double heat treated, T8 Aluminum
